    Guess I have been lucky, 8500 miles now and still no howl at 55+. But you said it started around 12,000, time will tell if it's on every diff.

    Im really trying hard not to be a dick......but.......


    #1.) Im 6'1" and I dont hit any body part on anything getting in and out of my truck with the exception of hitting my ankle on the predator step.....once. How do you manage this?
    #2.) How have you not traded your truck off and moved on if you hate it THIS badly. Every post I see of yours is something negative about your truck.

    Now I'd say he's trying to be a dick.

    In other news, I've used more italicized text today than I ever have an a forum. And for no apparent reason.

    Too late, he already ignored you. Anytime anyone questions why he is still here and all the negativity. Iggy time. :rofl::rofl:

    I know your life will be meaningless now. Sorry.

    Lol. I am a weather forecaster. It has its ups and downs, I worked with a combat weather guy on my last deployment, they are more combat guys with a little weather background than good forecasters, its it's own job now so no cross training there. On my home stretch and onto clinicals for PT school and someday I'll get to be a DPT if all works out, but thats a ways away. Always would love to work in moto if it paid halfway decent, then again I wonder if it would burn me out of my hobby/love affair with it. Good luck catching up on your work list my man! By the way I used to subscribe but now I just listen to pulp, dmxs and read the occasional MXA.

    Yeah, but you have to get the Pro to get the updated valve stem cap on the spare.

    I called a factory in Xiang Chiu province to confirm the part number listed on the secret sales brochure that only 2016 owners received if they have howling from the factory.
